Nick Sirianni confirms Jalen Hurts 'perfectly' addressed the team after Week 2 loss

Nick Sirianni confirms that he did not address his team following their Week 2 loss to the Atlanta Falcons on Monday night. Instead, Philadelphia Eagles starting quarterback Jalen Hurts delivered what Sirianni called a "perfect" message to the team.

"Jalen is an awesome leader. I'm sitting there looking through what I was going to say after the game. He spoke from his heart," Sirianni said of Hurts' message to the team after the brutal loss. "I thought his message was right on, dead on. We'll always keep in house things in house, but at the end of the day Jalen talked about the details.

"I just thought he was spot on with what he said, his passion was awesome. When a player is saying everything that you would say, there is no reason for me to speak afterwards. Man, that was perfect. Like I said, when your leaders are preaching the same messages that I am and that I believe in, and we're all on the same, that's huge. Quite frankly, I talk a lot...And so, I loved it and I know that helped kicked us in the butt a little bit and just kind of snap into the reality of it, hey it's one game and let's move on."

Sirianni added that he thought Hurts had an excellent game on the field as well, despite the loss, completing 23 of 30 passes for 183 yards, 1 TD, 1 INT and 13 carries for 85 yards and a second TD.
